Chronological prompting
A chef looks into camera in a bright open kitchen and says, "The secret is you never crowd the pan." Gentle handheld motion, close voice, quiet sizzle.
Foley and ambience
Name the material and action: "boots on gravel", "a ceramic cup set down on wood". Add one room tone such as "quiet studio ambience" or "distant traffic".
Music
Give an instrument and mood — "playful pizzicato strings", "soft piano" — and say if there should be no dialogue.
Stop-motion clay frog carries pancakes across a tiny felt kitchen, warm practical lamps, visible fingerprints, playful pizzicato strings and a plate clink.
